      It holds up fine. It does drag in the middle, but it always did. I will say that from the beginning of the movie to the first attack, it is a straight up, top notch thriller. I would put it up against any movie in terms of build up and suspense in that regard.

She would go all the way to Europe just to get a stamp in her passport. I don't know if that amounts to insanity, or just being really, really... likable.

      I can tell you why they don't. Its a DLynch film and the people who love his films, particularly that one, are also truly one of a kind. I don't mean that shitty. I hate Lynch's stuff but my best friend loves his stuff. I like surrealist stuff and stuff that isn't fully explained.....but there is a freakin limit for me in terms of making some narrative sense. So basically either you or my friend will need to interview Pullman.
